Any thoughts on saputo? Should be tomorrow shouldn't it?
Do you have to jump over hurdles like you do with Arla to get the headline price ?Never much chat about First Milk on here. Are there many direct suppliers on here? July price will be about 7.5 pence behind Arla and no chance of anymore for July. Feels a bit like FM are heading the same way as a few years ago, are they in for some sticky times??

Sounds like a slippery slope .Won't be long before your planting treesJohnes monitoring, quarterly BCS/cleanliness/mobility scoring and filling out an annual climate check survey aren’t exactly massive hurdles are they???
I’m quite happy doing all of the above for an extra 7.5ppl

And all the other regenerative agriculture nonsense as well seems to mean nothing if they’re giving the milk away. They’ve lot their focus on selling milk and more interested in tinkering with their farmer suppliers systemsPlanting trees is a First Milk thing, and they're 7.5ppl behind the pack!

Not a requirement for the standard litre price of 49p?Not one of those things is a rule on a standard Arla contract.

No, you have to ensure calves aren't slaughtered before 56 days but you don't have to keep them yourself. I would hope or imagine omsco have similar otherwise you're probably in for a bit of bad PR at some point.Not a requirement for the standard litre price of 49p?
Hence the ?No, you have to ensure calves aren't slaughtered before 56 days but you don't have to keep them yourself. I would hope or imagine omsco have similar otherwise you're probably in for a bit of bad PR at some point.
The other bits might be requirements for the 360 contract but it's not available down here so I've never really looked at it.
